Originally posted by Bryn View PostThe five movement Symphonic Poem in Two Parts, 'Titan', four movements of which Mahler reorchestrated to create his 1st Symphony, is where the soubtequet belongs. He did not carry it over to the four-movement 1st Symphony. There are now a few recordings of the five-movement 'Titan' to be had, including at least one using the fairly recent critical edition. The 'Blumine' movement, which Mahler did not carry forward to the 1st Symphony, even predates 'Titan'.

I have reposted this post of yours on the Mahler 1 thread where the same question had cropped up.

Tonight's TtN lists the Novosibirsk Symphony Orchestra as the ensemble playing the opening works. However, Googling "Novosibirsk Symphony Orchestra" and Nagano (the cited conductor) fails to provide any positive results. Indeed, the only association of Nagano with a Novosibirsk Orchestra that is thrown up is the Novosibirsk Philharmonic Orchestra. I look forward with some trepidation to whether the situation is clarified by member Swain.

NOT(T) Six Pieces for Chamber Orchestra, Op 6
Webern made a reduction for chamber orchestra comprising flute, oboe, clarinet, string quintet, percussion, harmonium, piano in 1920. This is not what was broadcast. What we heard was the 1928 version for orchestra (a smaller ensemble than that for the original 1909 version for "large orchestra" but not the chamber version). Why can't the Radio 3 folk get such simple things right? I was really looking forward to hearing Nott conduct the 1920 chamber version.

Hector Berlioz (1803-1869)
Romeo and Juliet, Op 17, dramatic symphony
Julie Boulianne (mezzo soprano), Paul Appleby (tenor), Alastair Miles (bass), Berlin Radio Chorus, German Symphony Orchestra Berlin, Robin Ticciati (conductor)
I guess this is rarely heard - I'm not even sure that I'd previously heard of it! - so this may be a useful source for Berlioz fans. It's an odd mix of orchestral symphonic music, solo voice and chorus. Truncated, sleepy listening (and over 90 minutes) - but it was instantly recognisable as Berlioz.

Terrific work - so original in its structural concept that it still confuses people whose ideas about what a work with "Symphony" in its title should "do" aren't as up-to-date as Hector's .
Thanks for the Thumbs up - I shall seek out its delights on the i-Player.[FONT=Comic Sans MS][I][B]Numquam Satis![/B][/I][/FONT]
